Screenshot Mr.Night plays FE8 HALB: Team [Creeping Shadows] (SUCK IT GAME! I WIN YOU LOSE AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA)

[MrNight48]

ch 17-18, Why this patch SUCKS!

I want that tome.

don't give two fucks about this thing though.

the team, gotta hustle to save the greens

good level and the last unit

knoll dies with the zerker who was holding my dragonshield

the tome and gold

this is when I learn the dragonspear is a devil weapon. instantly trash it after this.

best gains

only for erika to fuck it up

+7?

better level for lute

no sheild for me, apparently no str cormag was strong enough to one round the zerker

for the a thief with such bad growths, he is not terrible

wow, i can nuke lyon and good thing too! about to lose some people carrying greenies

do some shopping while clearing the way for innes to chip

did not get back my speed gain ;-;

speed for lute though. she is capped at strength so not much left she can get.

tome lute best lute.

ok I guess, depends on how good marisa is

<(OqO)>

oh man oh man oh man lance really paid off in the end.

got a good staff and longbows can be bought in spades here on the open map. My archers will not have to suffer with shit weapons now.

fuck it, Imma train her to see.

WHY NOW?!?!?

fuck this game, Ismaire got rng screwed.

Innes: +1 hp/+1 skill

Ismaire:

+15 hp

+7 str

+7 skill

capped speed

+4 luck

+0 def

+19 res

out of 19 levels. got screwed in str and skill if yellow growths mean anything.

isma is now a sniper for sure shot and Innes gained +1 in skill.

on to the best chapter in the game for me

ch 18

the team,

the plan?

you'll see

one of the targets, the other has a stone

killing eggs to feed my low levels

the spot

reset

and I fucked up my position, hold up

some technical difficulties

+10?

for a better setup and trick the flyer to go first like he did the first time

can't use a pure water when you already got barrier, good to know.

simply perfection

what did I do?

egg glitch

same as the torch/dead snag glitch, except you can do it where you kill the eggs. have an enemy stand where the egg was and reset when the pause before going grey.

with that I have unlimited ranged tome and a stone. "dark tome lute here I come!"

de-weaponed every monster, time for a exp feeding frenzy, put the crap monsters that give little exp on fire tiles. they can just kill themselves for not being worthy.

......

are they allergic to strength?

is all my bow users allergic to fucking strength?!

loving this spear already

I can't...

I don't even....

I GAVE YOU A TOME MARISA!

"dat moment where vanessa gets strength when she has no tome and has a lower chance to get it"

think anybody will miss her if I throw her into the lava?

klok?

oh yeah, drafted unit.

way to earn my favor.

I end the chapter to check out my new toys for lute.

WHAT?! FUCK!

so remember when I said evil eye should have been usable by vanessa? yeah this patch made every fucking monster tome monster bound.

Looks like only knoll gets to use it, I get another op spider in a fe8 randomized run again. arrrrrgh!

I really want to see the next chapter, just because the rest of these write-ups are so amusing.

[Katie]

Your poor Marisa. I may have a heavy bias towards Marisa but even I would bench yours.

[Excellen Browning]

Give Niddhogg to Ismaire. Leave that wench Marisa behind. Ismaire is superior.

[Katie]

Give Niddhogg to Ismaire. Leave that wench Marisa behind. Ismaire is superior.

He can't. The rules make it so he literally HAS to use Marisa, in addition to Tethys and Innes.

[MrNight48]

Time for the epic conclusion

ch 19 - Training, 100 days of Night part 1

the team for chapter 19, man this chapter is going to be a bitch

or I can just torch glitch, yeah I'm going to torch glitch. some knight attacks the green right away so that is my trigger.

this is going to be fun later on.

get my chest fuckers in position and...

your units are now my units.

I. want. THIS!

whelp, I'm glad I took over this bastard cause now that stone is mine.

perfect.

now they won't be threats

one last item I want

anyway let's get started

have my shit delivered by ups and I drop everyone's weapons.

also holy shit that silver bow is legend material

I let the greens have their revenge

you make me regret being a tactician with these no str gain levels.

about 4 turns of looting

still fighting my way up here for the brave bow.

but I always get my target

some last loot while I hold the line.

once I got everything, it is was time to end that weak ass excuse of a dragon.

knoll shows me their is hope in this profession

beat down rev for a nice brave lance.

got my last legends. unfortunately ivaldi is another motherfucking eclispe tome.

more gold and whatever

let's check the secret shop I missed.

lame

wew final chapter is now open.

buy some good shit

so amazing

sold my crap, apparently poison sword a legend with +5 def

ok it is time to do some training because this rag tag team of losers...

might not be able to cut it in the upcoming final battle.

so during some offscreen grinding,

found out something pretty interesting, once somebody gets stoned, it is very easy to keep stoning them.

neat.

some supports while boss abusing and map didn't end. anyway

the team is ready. marisa s rank in swords cuz...

she is a weaker but more tanky myrrh. what is important to note is she got 3 str out of 20 fucking levels. I gave her 2 rings.

I will just fucking deal.

the final battle is next

[MrNight48]

Final Chapter, 100 days of Night part 2

before we go wreck the demon king's shit.

it's booster time

knoll got most of it, I have big plans for him. different from what klok was expecting.

da krew for this chapter. just going to kill my way to the goal.

while tet clears a path, knoll will be abusing his toy clearing out annoying threats.

holy fuck bolting is a brave weapon gg

tet is doing fine in her solo mission.

hmmm....

change of plans, wrapping josh over there to end this quickly.

get in position for the next turn.

yeah fuck this chapter.

laters, I'm out.

the final chapter, LET'S DO THIS!

too far but let's check his stats anyway.

bull

SHIT!

dragons killing themselves.

best kind of dragon.

the next best kind of dragon is a dead dragon. non-zombie dead to clarify

too many braves, lute is the entire justice league and avengers combined.

sigh, guess I launch attacks from safety

they only showed up just to die.

knoll murdered them all from the safety of shadow shot.

more useless support

lyon is a bullshit problem. how shall I beat him.

wait a minute, I can stone him?

hmm

eh yeah, this won't work so....

"Blazing it"

oh man lyon is now fucked.

annnd lyon is dead, gg. he was too blazed to fight back.

ok time for the demon king

yeah fuck this too.

game is not to happy with klok's adjustments

and the stone is useless.

no seriously why would klok expect anything else except us abusing eclispe weapons?

ok I tried using the stone but it forces combat so my game cried in terrible pain.

so new plan

after a divine and 2 killer bows, the demon king is about to die.

how?

Pierce skills BITCH!

~can't keep me down

I WIN THE HALB CHALLENGE!

suck it game, I have restored my gaming honor!

[Katie]

Klok, I must say I'm really disappointed at the final bosses. Please don't take pointers from GhebFE, except as an example of how NOT to make a romhack.

[eclipse]

Lyon was interesting. Like, you can either use brute strength, or get creative.

The Demon King crashed my emulator, so I have no pity for him. Glad I was able to use Eclipse and company~!

Congratulations~! Yeah, I'm late, but I just finished myself.

[MrNight48]

Actually forgot the main purpose klok had us playtest this until now so some quick final thoughts.

MVPs:

Joshua/Lute/Knoll/Innes

made this patch bearable I swear

Drafted units:

Innes/Tet/ fucking marisa

Innes and Tet turned out to be pretty damn great

marisa however....

omg marisa, the serra spawn in fe8.

She lucky I love her because I never wanted to bench a unit so hard.

Honerable mentions:

Myrhh

Carried josh to greatness. The wise old teacher that trained him into the beast he is today.

Now to talk about Klok's gimmicks:

Weapons having more than one effect-

Pretty cool and was always interesting to see what one would get. Although I would say you favored dark tomes way too hard only for there to be potentially 2 dark users. 8/10

Color Coded Stats-

Some of the dopiest shit I have ever seen. This is one of the things fire emblem hacking community needs so bad to help players instantly tell what to expect from new units. I would say the actual games shouldn't need this because it's part of the fun but for hacks, it's a feature that helps tremendously. 11/10

9 Movement-

Meh.

It surprises me that concept turned out to be pretty meh. It ruins save the greenies/town missions but as far as enemy difficulty, it only makes them rush faster to their deaths. If anything, it makes bait n switch/turtling faster and better. It also ruins horse characters because you quickly realize they are bad classes without that gimmick. Like, really bad. Generals however become one of the best classes and finally get to shine under the sun. anyway meh/10

Special mentions, the tweaked final bosses-

Lyon was perfect, Demon King however was just meh as well.

I already said what I had to say in pm's but for the readers, do know I am biased when it comes to bosses like these.

The expected way to beat the boss was to have the DK switch weapons. which in theory is not a bad idea, however the DK is one of the worst bosses to do this for due to his hard code scripted AI that can interfere with this strategy. I do not like AI manipulation to be a strat to win when it comes to fire emblem, as some of you have seen in my LP's with project dondon. I don't like them because they are never a guarantee, they can always do something a little different than what the creator intended. Especially now when the community is just now starting to seriously figure out what AI codes do and in what way to structure them. Of course it is possible to win without too much trouble (tested offscreen), but again it can get out of hand if the player did something in a way the creator didn't intend and happens to perfectly mess with the AI decisions.

Anyway, it was a fun run. So see y'all at the next LP.
